These events are followed by an unexpectedly triumphant performance by Christine Dae, who previously had an undistinguished singing career, which proves to be linked to the phantom.

Raoul wants Christine to leave with him immediately, but she refuses to run without singing for Erik a final time. Christine and Raoul run through the Opera to Christines dressing room. A turnover in the management of the opera house coincides with sightings of the so-called Opera ghost and the grim discovery of the hanged corpse of Joseph Buquet, the company's chief scene-shifter. Chapter 13 Summary: A Master-Stroke of the Trap-Door Lover. This understated treatment means that even his spoiler-laden prologue heightens rather than lessens suspense.
The phantom falls in love with soprano Christine Daa which causes a ton of trouble for the opera house. The book is about a Parisian opera house that is haunted by a mysterious and alluring phantom.
Much of the book's power stems from the author's presentation of his narrative as the factual product of his own diligent archival research and interviews with survivors of the phenomenon. The Phantom of the Opera by Gaston Leroux is a beautiful, classic novel that has an extremely compelling story. The tale of a Paris opera house inhabited by a spectral figure with seemingly magical abilities remains genuinely creepy today. The inaugural release in the Horror Writers Association Haunted Library of Horror Classics series will be a revelation to those familiar only with the musical based on the 1910 novel by LeRoux (1868 1927).
